1.0 INTRODUCTION

The Air Traffic Control (ATC) Systems Division, Naval Air Warfare Center, Aircraft Department (NAWCAD) Patuxent River Code 4.5.8, located at St. Inigoes, MD is the In-Service Engineering Agent (ISEA) and Software Support Activity (SSA) for Air Traffic Control and Landing Systems (ATC&LS). The ATC Division provides systems engineering support to developmental programs such as the Joint Precision Approach and Landing System (JPALS), Navy Unmanned Combat Air System (N-UCAS) and Unmanned Carrier-Launched Airborne Surveillance and Strike (UCLASS) programs. The JPALS program is developing the next generation air traffic control and landing system for Navy air-capable ships as well as providing the Precision Global Positioning System (PGPS) solution for N-UCAS/UCLASS auto-land functions. Satisfactory performance of the system will depend on both aircraft and shipboard algorithms that can adequately integrate Global Positioning System (GPS) and inertial sensor outputs through a robust data link.

NAWCAD 4.5.8 is tasked to prototype, test, integrate and evaluate JPALS equipment, into aircraft and ship platforms. During the Technology Development (TD) phase, JPALS prototyping will be conducted. This will require the installation and integration of JPALS components into test aircraft, JPALS Mobile Test Vehicle (JMTV), and into two test facilities (the Satellite Navigation (SATNAV) Facility and Technical Evaluation Center (SAFTEC), and the Landing Systems Test Facility (LSTF) JPALS extension, B2110) that were developed during the on-going TD phase. Support of this testing requires the management and operation of the test facility at NAS Patuxent River, MD, and the mobile test facility for the JPALS program.

The N-UCAS/UCLASS program is a Navy effort to demonstrate the technical feasibility, military utility and operational value for a networked system of high performance, weaponized Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAVs) to effectively and affordably prosecute combat missions. The Northrop Grumman X-47 platform is the current candidate UAV system being evaluated. Key parts of the integration of these unmanned air vehicles into the military force structure is an auto-land capability, incorporation within military air traffic control, Automated Aerial Refueling (AAR), and Warfighter Networking (WFN) development. Program activities will include efforts to simulate system performance, evaluate sensor units in operational environments, prototype ATC interfaces, and provide operator feedback geared toward anticipated landing on a carrier suitable platform. NAWCAD 4.5.8 is tasked to prototype and integrate the auto-land function, ATC interface, and AAR functionality into aircraft and ship platforms as appropriate and conduct testing. This will require the installation of these components into civil and military aircraft, Navy Aircraft Carrier (CV/CVN) platforms, the LSTF JPALS extension, the N-UCAS Aviation/Ship Integration Facility (NASIF), and the N-UCAS Mobile Test Platform (UMTP). Support of this testing will require the use of multiple mobile test vehicles requiring prototyping and integration efforts, and the set up and operation of the required test facilities.

An IA Manager is available via the NAVAIR portal at https://mynavair.navair.navy.mil/portal/server.pt/gateway/PTARGS_32_0_856_0_-1_47/http;/C27VMWARPAXR274.nadsusea.nads.navy.mil;11930/collab/do/document/overview?projID=135128&documentID=290394 All IT procured on behalf of NAVAIR shall meet all DoD/DON and NAVAIR IA polices. Failure to follow these policies will result in denied access to NMCI, One Net, Integrated Shipboard Network System (ISNS) and other DON, DoD and Joint Networks. These IA policies are standard across the Department and ensure IA compatibility and interoperability.

IT systems and or networks operated by contractors subsequent to a NAVAIR contract, regardless of the level of data processed shall be operated and in accordance with the NISPOM.

Contractor-owned equipment shall be permitted connections to NAVAIR/DoD networks in order to carry out the performance of this contract. All Contractor-owned hardware and/or software shall meet DoDI 8500.2 IA Controls, is subject to validation scanning and must be approved by the NAVAIR site IA Manager prior to connection. The following specific criteria must be met before being connected to any DoD or NAVAIR network in support of this contract. Requirements include:

a.

Network Vulnerability Scanning. NAVAIR Deputy CIO for Information Assurance maintains authorized auditing tools and shall provide for firewall/port scans, device discovery scan, vulnerability assessment, and other requirements as required to ensure secure interoperability with DoD Contracts. The contractor shall be responsible for the remediation of any equipment that fails these audits prior to the connection the system to the networks; Results of approvals shall be documented via Memorandum of Agreement with the Facility Security officer and the Defense Security Service Representative for that contractor;

b.

Extent of Validation Scanning. To prevent scanning of “corporate” assets, all such networks, equipment and connections shall be physically segregated from any government/contractor “corporate” networks that are not in direct support of DoD contracts;

c.

Circuit Provisioning. Any circuit or connection between NAVAIR and/or DoD site and the contractor site shall be provisioned via the Defense information Security Agency and comply with CJCSI 6211.02C (series), “Defense Information System Network (DISN): Policy and Responsibilities,” 9 July 2008;

d.

Servicing Systems from a Remote Contractor Site. Remote Access Service connections that allow off-station operation and/or administration of contractor owned systems, located at any NAVAIR facility or site, shall not be permitted, with the exception of those systems connecting to the Command via the Outreach Services identified in Section 7, Enterprise Architecture;

e.

Memorandum of Agreement and Inter-connection Agreements. An Information Assurance Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between the contractor owning the equipment and AIR-7.2.6 shall be developed and signed before the equipment can be connected to NAVAIR networks. Failure to comply with the signed MOA shall be grounds for disconnection from the network.

10.6 NMCI: Reserved

10.7 Enterprise Architecture:

a. Contractor Networks and Connections. Contractor-owned and operated networks are prohibited on any Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) facility or site in support of this contract. The contractor may access non-government, external IP space via the NAVAIR-provided Virtual Private Network (VPN) Outreach service or NAVAIR CIO approved Internet Protocol (IP) service.

b. Architecture Compliance. The contractor shall ensure all IT solutions, including database solutions, comply with the appropriate NAE Enterprise Architecture, and are verified by the NAVAIR Enterprise Architect (AIR-7.2.3) prior to build out.

c. Disclosure of pre-existing networks, circuits or connections. Any and all networks, circuits or connections between the contractor and any NAVAIR site related to previous contracts shall be identified in the MOA. Failure to comply and subsequent discovery of an unregistered network, circuit or connection shall be grounds for immediate disconnection.

d. IT Approval. The contractor shall not purchase any IT equipment on behalf of NAVAIR in support of a contract without a NAVAIR CIO signed IT approval.

10.8 Software Process Improvement Initiative (SPII):

The SPII Policy requires that standardized contract language be included in solicitations or contracts under which contractor(s) are required to perform “software development”.

As defined in the Assistant Secretary of the Navy (ASN) Memorandum, Software Process Improvement Initiative (SPII) Guidance for Use of Software Process Improvement Contract Language dated 13 July 2007, ““Computer Software development” or “software development” means, as applicable developing or delivering new source code, modifying existing source code, coding computer instructions and data definitions, building databases schema, and performing other activities needed to implement the design of a noncommercial computer software product. This definition recognized that even small changes to software code can result in significant changes to software system behavior and quality, and, consequently, that it is necessary for developers to define and follow disciplined and appropriate processes.”

Mandatory elements of the SPII policy language are:

a. The requirement that Offerors submit a proposed Software Development Plan (SDP) with their proposals, and, during contract performance, deliver a completed SDP (based on the proposed SDP) as a Contract Data Requirements List (CDRL) deliverable, subject to Government review and approval.

b. The information content of the SDPs, which shall follow the framework of Institute of Electrical & Electronics Engineers (IEEE)/Electronics Industries Association (EIA) IEEE/EIA Std 12207 regarding subject content, level of detail, and completeness.

c. The requirement that the SDP serve during contract performance as the benchmark for the contractor’s software development effort.

d. The requirement that the SDP shall be periodically evaluated and updated, as a part of continuous process improvement subject to Government review and approval.

Discretionary elements of the SPII policy language are:

a. Where the language is incorporated in the solicitation and contract.

b. The format of the SDP (including whether it needs to be a single volume or may consist of multiple volumes.)

c. The other elements of IEE/EIA Std 12207 that must be included, as based on the needs of the system to be acquired and its associated work content.

The policy and additional information can be found at http://acquisition.navy.mil/content/view/full/5144

12. IT APPROVAL

The contractor shall not purchase any IT equipment on behalf of NAVAIR in support of a contract without a NAVAIR CIO signed IT approval.

13. WORK SCHEDULE

The contractor shall provide the required services and staffing coverage during normal working hours (NWHs). NWHs are usually 8.5 hours (including a 30-minute lunch break), from 0730-1600 each Monday through Friday (except on the legal holidays specified elsewhere). Some supported Government offices have flexibility to start as early as 0600/0630 and end as late as 1800 Monday - Friday. Services and staffing shall be provided for each office at least 8 hours per day (during the 8.5 hour workday which includes the 30-minute lunch break).

Government Employees are allowed to voluntarily work a "Compressed Work Schedule" (CWS). CWS is an alternative work schedule to the traditional five 8.5 hour workdays (which includes a 30-minute lunch) worked per week. Under a CWS schedule an employee completes the following schedule within a two-week period of time: eight weekdays are worked at 9.5 hours each (which includes a 30-minute lunch), one weekday is alternately worked as 8.5 hours (which includes a 30-minute lunch) and one weekday is not worked by the employee. The result is 80 hours worked every two weeks, with 44 work hours one week and 36 work hours the other.

The contractor awarded this contract, with agreement by COR, may allow its employees to work a CWS schedule. Any contractor that chooses to allow its employees to work a CWS schedule in support of this contract, agrees that any additional costs associated with the implementation of the CWS schedule vice the standard schedule are unallowable costs under this contract and will not be reimbursed by the government. Furthermore, all contractors shall comply with the requirements of the Fair Labor Standards Act and particularly with Section 7 regarding compensatory overtime. Additionally, the CWS schedule shall not prevent Contractor employees from providing necessary staffing and services coverage when required by the Government facility.
